Ivan Zambrana, the department director of the Special Force for Crime Fighting, told local media: ‘The dead bodies, both the girl’s and the lynching victim’s, have been moved to Palos Blancos [near Bolivian capital La Paz], we are investigating the case.’
Nobody has been arrested for the lynching, but the police are currently questioning locals and using social media videos of the incident in tackling the case.
